Bleeding Bills Blue

I think they probably have 1 (maybe 2 with restructures) more year with the team as its constructed, but losing the coordinators is definitely a big setback. They don't have the QB for that to not have an effect on their offense.

It also completely ignores the work buffalo put in to set up that scenario. 21-19. Bills drive 37 yards in 10 plays and kick a FG to go up 5. Ravens scored a TD on the previous possession... so according to the media that immediately means they will again. Well they fumbled again. Buffalo gets the ball at their 46 and drives down to the 2, kicks a FG to set up final drive for baltimore. Lamar made some amazing plays and they scored, but buffalo took so much time off of the clock that they had to play hurry up the rest of the way, in a 1-possession game that they could not win. But yea - no credit to the bills offense.

I know its to justify them being wrong about their pick... The things i hate? The defensive PI gave the bills 7. It actually put the ball at the 12. Buffalo ran 3 times inside and scored a TD wrapping up a 70 yard drive. How about a little defense? It's also ignoring the garbage holding penalty on the only drive buffalo punted on in the 1st half. It's also ignoring several OPI's mark andrews committed that went uncalled. Cry more. If i throw up a jump ball and your guys all over him in the lead up to the jump ball... and he can't jump because of how much contact there is... then it has to be SOMETHING. I don't think it should matter if you get your head around if you have wrapped him up the entire lead up to the catch point. Ravens gave the game away with mistakes. Sure the pick is a bad throw or read or both - but you still have to catch it. They were in 2nd and 11 after Henry was stuffed (weird... because the media would say that he was getting 10 yards a clip). Lamar fumbled because he was wrapped up by a bills player... as in he FORCED the mistake. And Bernard made a great play. Give the bills defense some credit for creating 3 turnovers. If they were unstoppable they wouldn't have kicked 2 field goals. Andrews drop lost OT. There was a minute and a half left, we hadn't really unleashed allen the entire game and buffalo had 2 timeouts. And while it was a drop, LJ should take some blame for pump faking and throwing that ball super late - Andrews feet ended up tangled because he knew the sideline was fast approaching. Buffalo's 2nd half approach was methodical, and they used just about 10 or 11 of the last 15 or 16 minutes. They set up a great scenario - you need 8 points. I can stop you and its game over. I can stop the conversion, and then its an onside kick. Borderline game over just because of the percentages here. You can score 8, and you still have to give Allen the ball... with 1:33 on the clock.

I say if they roll Andrews, Likely, Ricard then yeah - add the 3rd linebacker. But if they have a 2nd WR instead of likely or ricard? I'd keep TJ out there. He's a good tackler and instincts tend to win out more than beef.

I think there's some friendliness there for some of the top guys, and its a marketability tactic as well for other income that Lamar just doesn't have. If you want to be in more commercials? You should probably either share an agent, or be friendly with guys like Allen, Mahomes, etc.

Like... wait... which QB got knocked out the last time they came to buffalo again?

He's not officially on the team until 2/10.

Only 3 other players than what you listed - 2 were late 7th rounders, and a 5th round WR who was injured in 2024 and then ultimately got beat out by a UDFA from the same class in 2024.

I mean he literally quit on his team this year and was largely a complete malcontent before he was traded to baltimore. He seems to think he's antonio brown, but he's just not. 30+ WRs get drafted every year, and many barely play in year 1. Now there's another 30 coming in 2025, plus the ones from last year, players returning from injury... There's only like 96 "starting" wr jobs, and i'd imagine he's no longer in consideration for a starting spot with the majority of teams after this behavior. I know I'm personally not interested at all, let alone for league minimum compensation (which wouldn't qualify for comp pick anyway). Then factoring in what a "bench" WR is responsible for - he'd likely have to return punts and kicks again, or play special teams... i'm not sure he's better than a lot of other veterans in those roles. He hasn't returned a kick in 4 years, i doubt he'd sign up to play special teams or play well in that role. Johnson cannot suit up for baltimore the rest of the season.

Considering the nationals rallied their WS winning season around Baby Shark... i don't really care what they pick.

I mean if you go left, i always go to south park-milestrip-90 East to get back to Williamsville. You could do that to 90W, or probably just hang a left on south park and take it straight to hamburg no? I always say if you can't get there before 815ish, you may as well come after 9 because its a parking lot until lots open. so in this scenario at 630 make sure to try and get there between 1-2?

They just embraced how ***** erotic organized sports really is. It's easier to embrace it when you get older. 😉

One thing i like is how we've had a full tilt turn from a softer passing team to a physical running team. They also add physicality to their passing game with Knox and Kincaid. No DB on the planet likes tackling these big dudes, so it goes a long way to softening them up as the game goes on.

Inability to run and stop the run killed that cinci game. I also felt like frazier called a pretty poor game with a ton of zone stuff fearing getting beat over the top. I'd say the line upgrades from Saffold to Edwards, Morse to McGovern (morse was a solid pass protector, but never had a ton of juice as a run blocker), and Bates to Torrence are big. I also think Dorsey to Brady has been an upgrade from a playcalling perspective. We seem to have ways to scheme open in man and blitz packages, ty johnsons a better 3rd down back from a blocking side than anyone we had. On the defensive side of the ball - Rousseau and AJE are still here, but rousseau is not a rookie anymore. Poyer was not the same poyer in 2022 with the elbow, and marlowe/johnson are both currently unemployed. DQ didn't play. Phillips played with a shoulder injury that he had surgery on right after the season ended. Von didn't play. Edmunds is fine, but i find bernard has a better ability to create negative plays in run and pass game.

I wear overalls and a hoodie. I usually stash my cigs in a hoodie pocket underneath (i don't smoke in the stadium, but its nice to be able to light one up on the walk to the car), but i imagine you can probably stash anything in there. I think Lamar gets down pretty well, but sometimes he's a little bit awkward with it. People say allen's strategy of running through people is more likely to induce injury but stopping/starting/changing direction while getting hit is usually when lower body injuries occur.

The arm's there. They have a ton of talented playmakers which tends to make your season stat line look more robust. Offensive line was pretty poor down the stretch though. There were several sacks where i said last night to throw the damn ball. So its not just on the oline in this scenario either.

Usually those are owned by season ticket holders. I would just look on secondary market if you are looking for club seats. The map should say which club if you are looking for the kelly club specifically.

So we'll have 1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6. They can add a ton to this team with even just the first 5 picks here. Special teams players might be on the table with that many picks. 1 - Our own 2 - Our own and the Vikings pick 56. 3 - No pick 4 - Our own pick, and the Bears pick that we got for moving a surplus pick in 2024 5 - No pick - 2 projected comp picks for net loss of davis and floyd. https://overthecap.com/compensatory-formula 6 - Our own pick, the 7/6 swap with the giants for boogie basham (probably like a jump from pick 250 to pick 180 actually so ), and a 6th from either the lions or the browns. 7 - No pick - swap with giants 6th Last season they sold a 5th for an extra 4th, i could see that being on the table again because 10 people is just a lot to add after free agency. WR, DE, DT, CB, S are needs. There are some cap crunch moves incoming like milano, miller, oliver, and knox on the table - contracts coming up for benford, bernard, cook, rousseau, and shakir. It's a pretty important draft to nail a few players that contribute on their rookie deals. I'd like to see a really talented defensive tackle, as i think it would make an immediate impact. Same with a good young corner.

Yes he was late on the switch because of the motion into 4x1. But that doesn't really explain the effort after the catch.

denver doesn't do much with tight ends or passing to backs, so it makes sense to roll with lewis on 3rd and longs imo.

I'd like to see him come down with some of them, but if a ball came out on-time yesterday - i didn't really see it. Couple others looked uncatchable.

Just means he isn't a free agent. Nothing screams guarantees in 2025. It's probably also pretty cheap.

Wait, we're mad he took a pay cut now?

Hurt him, but probably keep his price down a little bit on the negotiation 😉
